"We really enjoyed our stay at the lodge. It had all the essentials, so we only needed to bring ourselves. The beds were super comfy with nice cotton sheets and duvets. The atmosphere was warm and inviting and the heating and lights were already on when we arrived on that chilly November evening. Definitely a lovely little getaway!"

"We had a lovely stay at The away with our dog, Max. The lodge was spotless and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The fishing was fantastic, especially catching a 13-pound carp - made the trip even more memorable! Its a perfect spot to explore the local area, with nice trips to Clovelly, Westward Ho!, Appledore and Bideford. The staff were really friendly and helpful, which made us feel welcome. We've been several times now and plan to go back in September. Its such a peaceful, tranquil place - we just love it. Cant wait to return!"

Charlotte - Jun 2023
"We absolutely loved the peaceful vibe here, with the lovely rhododendrons and the calming sounds of birds and lambs. The walks around the forest and lakes are perfect for unwinding and the hot tub? Just what we needed. Our stay in Bluebell was really comfortable and had everything we could ask for. Even though it's nearby, it felt like a proper escape. Definitely returning!"
Harper - May 2022
"We really enjoyed the stunning setting, such a picturesque spot. Its quite remote but still close enough to everything we needed. The lodge was spotless and spacious enough for just two of us, though it might feel a bit cosy for four adults. The hot tub was a lovely bonus! The linen, towels and upholstery were all fresh and clean. Only small downside was the bed being a bit firm and the pillows werent the comfiest. Still, a nice stay overall!"

"Really enjoyed our recent trip"
Elena - Apr 2022
"We stayed in these lodges for a quick 4-night break and honestly, it was just what we needed. Nestled in woodl and, with lakes right across, the setting was peaceful and pretty. The lodges had everything we could ask for and felt really cosy. Theyre not far from Westward Ho!, Bideford and Instow, which is handy. Our little one, whos just over two, was completely smitten with the place - she loved exploring! There are supermarkets nearby, so getting supplies was easy. The only thing to mention is that the lodges are dog friendly, so there was a bit of a dog smell, but it didnt spoil our stay. Wed definitely come back!"

"We stayed solo and having two bedrooms really gave us plenty of space to relax. Everything we needed was there, from the kitchen utensils to the comfy setup, making it feel just like home. The lodges secluded spot on that little hill was lovely, though it might be tricky if you have mobility issues or a heavy pushchair. Overall, a cosy and well-equipped place!"
Martin - Dec 2021
"The lodge is really charming and has a lovely view, but those woodl and steps outside are quite tricky, especially the ladder stairs up to the bedroom."
Jessie - Nov 2021
"We had a lovely stay at Bulworthy Forest. Its such a peaceful spot, perfect for quiet walks through the woods around the lodges. The outdoor barbecue was a real bonus and we enjoyed sitting on the front porch bench, just taking it easy. The lodge was spotless and well-equipped, with plenty of cutlery and plates in the kitchen. Parking wasnt an issue either, as there was space for two cars right outside. Liz, the site manager, gave us some handy tips about the best times to visit the beach and where to park. Only thing was, some more comfy garden chairs would have been nice-those picnic benches arent ideal if you want to read, but theyre fine for eating outside!"
Sarah - Aug 2020

"We stayed at Chestnut recently and honestly, it was just what we needed. The lodge is a good size, tucked away high among the trees, with stunning views of the top lake. We loved chilling in the covered hot tub and having picnics with that forest backdrop. The place had all the essentials, like a washing machine and tumble dryer and was super peaceful with loads of birds and wildlife around. Definitely a great escape!"
Grace - Oct 2018
"We had an amazing week at this quiet spot, surrounded by beautiful woods and stunning views. Perfect for relaxing and fishing, just what we needed. The hot tub was a real treat after a day outdoors and the staff were super friendly. The cabin was cosy and warm, exactly as expected. Cant wait to come back again! Highly recommend."
Jenna - Oct 2018
"Really good experience, would recommend to others."
Chris - Sep 2018
"The lodge was pretty charming and had everything we needed for a comfy stay. The covered hot tub was a real treat after a busy day exploring. Nestled in Bulworthy Forest, its perfect for walks, though the attractions are about half an hour away. We really enjoyed our stay!"
Olivia - Aug 2018
"Looking forward to our next visit!"
Ellie - Mar 2018
"We had a fabulous time and would totally go again. The area is so so relaxing and peaceful and is close to beaches and shops (including a Tesco and Morrison's) which are around 15 minutes away by car.
The only downside was my partner and his son were a little disappointed by the Carp fishing (although they spoke to the owner and she is aware the lakes need restocking)."
Christine - Jul 2022
"Bulworthy Forest is a beautiful peaceful setting, you truly are in the middle of a forest. We loved waking and hearing only birds & sheep and looking out at the beautiful surroundings. It is worth pointing out that the last approximately 2 miles to Bulworthy Forest is via very narrow lanes with high hedges or trees either side and probably not enough passing places. Also the site is quite steep so if you are above the lakes it is quite steep to walk. However we though this a price worth paying for the lovely accommodation and surroundings and would definitely book again."
Amanda - Jul 2022
"Fantastic just lacked a freezer. Great walks and friendly staff. Lots to do around and about. Good places to eat. Our dog really enjoyed the beaches near by"
Belinda - Jul 2022
"The cabin itself was clean. Surroundings were extremely peaceful. We will definitely go again. Signal was pretty bad, so WiFi was quite sporadic, which seemed to worsen more each day. People were friendly and staff were welcoming.
Would have been nice to have a welcome basket, with some basic essentials such as, milk, bread, butter and some cereals. So that you don't have to rush out and buy such things when you get there."
Jackie - Jul 2022
"Beautiful lodge. Lovely to come back to after a busy day sightseeing. Peaceful and serene.
Highly recommended and will definitely be back!"
Joanne - Jun 2022
"Had a fabulous 4 nights in Larches for 4 adults and 2 dogs.
The lodge was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. We made good use of the hot tub and bbq. Lovely to sit on the enclosed porch with the dogs while they were on squirrel watch. Lovely peaceful location with some nice forest walks. If you need Internet access, Larches has really good connection. The owner is lovely; very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the area; gave us some good tips on dog-friendly places to visit. Can't rate this place highly enough...bliss!"

"Bloody great location"
Amron - Jun 2022
"The property was clean and had everything we needed. My husband enjoyed the fishing and it is certainly an away from it all break. The only slight negative is that the lodge is in a shaded spot with undergrowth up to the windows at the rear of the property."
